The ones shooting the video can be heard laughing loudly at the man’s antics. He is also seen flinging a shoe to the ground as he screams “Pakistan Murdabad!” At one point of time in the video, he asks a burka-clad woman to repeat after him and she obliges.
The Pulwama Terror attack took place on February 14, 2019, in Pulwama, Kashmir. Fidayeen recruited by the terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed drove an explosive-filled SUV into a CRPF convoy, killing over 40 jawans.
The incident is the most brazen single attack in Jammu and Kashmir in recent years. Pakistan’s involvement in the attack has been suspected since it has always provided a safe haven for terrorists on its soil. The public sentiments against Pakistan have also been mirrored by the government as India stripped its troublesome neighbour’s “Most-Favoured-Nation” status in the wake of the attack. The customs duty on goods from Pakistan has also been hiked to 200 percent in the aftermath of the Pulwama attacks.
